Question
Which one of the following form(s) a virtual and erect image for allpositions of the objecte ?
Options
A.Convex lens
B.Concave lens
C.Convex mirror
D.Concave mirror
Solution

For a lens

ie,

For a concave lens f, and u are negative, i.e., v will always be negative and image will always be virtual.
For a mirror :

Here, f is positive and u is negative for convex mirror. Therefore, v is always positve and image is always virtual.
